Abstract
Sir, Gastrointestinal duplications are rare congenital malformations that differ in size, site and symptoms.[1] Gastrointestinal duplications are observed in 1 in 4500 live births, and are common in males. The small intestine is the most frequent site involved, whereas gastric, duodenal, rectal, and thoracoabdominal involvement is relatively rare. Synchronous gastrointestinal duplications occur in as many as 15% of patients.[2] Semental resection or stripping with intestinal lengthening procedure is completely curative of the condition.[3-6]
